Pathology & tissue diagnosis
Pathology examines cells and tissue to establish or refine a diagnosis. A second review may require original slides or tissue blocks, not only the written report.

Procedure guides
Times are planning guides, not national averages or guaranteed schedules. They reflect published provider examples and patient guidance. The treating team confirms the individual plan, time needed near the clinic and fitness to travel. Waiting lists are not included.

Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy
Investigation of blood disorders.

Planning your care
Ask the treating service for a written plan. Appointment numbers and time away depend on the procedure, results and individual needs.
- Which clinical question should the consultation or test answer, and which existing reports can be reviewed first?
- Are preparation, contrast, sedation or a separate results appointment required? Ask the service for individual instructions.
- When will results be available, who will explain them and can follow-up take place remotely?
